When I initially saw it, the tone of the quote seemed to reveal a lack of assimilation of the insight mattnewport gave; to the extent that the quote is doing so in this context, such oversimplification does count as a (3rd) kind of foolishness. I do not, however, deem you a fool.
While I still don’t think the quote was helpful, I will remove the remark that implies you are a fool. And, as standard practice, I didn’t mod down any of your comments in this thread because I was involved in the thread’s argument.
I apologize for giving you grief about the quote.

Please do not take offense.
